Each academic year Dover PTO provides a total of $5,000 to Chickering School in the form of Teacher Grants. The PTO Teacher Grants are designed to fund classroom enhancements that are connected to the Common Core and School Improvement Plan. We encourage teachers to be thoughtful and creative in considering their needs, and every year they come up with innovative ideas to help enhance their classrooms and curriculum. Teachers submit grant applications to Dover PTO Board in September. Together with Dr. Reinemann and Mr. Carnes, Dover PTO Board reviews and approves applications in October.
